Chapter 21, Problem 44P
A step-down transformer is used for recharging the batteries of portable devices. The turns ratio N2/N1 for a particular transformer used in a GD player is 1:13. When used with 120.-V (rms) household service, the transformer draws an rms current of 250. mA. Find the (a) rms output voltage of the transformer and (b) power delivered to the CD player.

A cheetah spots a gazelle in the distance and begins to sprint from rest, accelerating uniformly at a rate of 8.00 m/s^2 for 5 seconds. After 5 seconds, the cheetah sees that the gazelle has escaped to safety, so it begins to decelerate uniformly at 6.00 m/s^2 until it comes to a stop.
